We are a medium sized dive centre offering a personal service to our divers. Scuba Steve’s is owner operated and we dive every day with our guests and make every effort to give you a top quality service at an affordable price. We believe that the success of our business depends upon us providing our guests with an exceptional level of service as well as a great diving experience.

We offer diving and snorkeling, private boat tours and our Dive and Drive tour. We also believe that your comfort and safety are our main priorities. To ensure that your dive experience lives up to your expectations in this respect, all dive guides are PADI Instructors and PADI Divemasters. All our diving equipment is scrupulously maintained and disinfected after every use. Our boats are fitted with VHF Radio, Lighting, DAN Oxygen Kit, Personal Life Preservers, Flares, First Aid Kit, Drift Line and Float and are driven only by LICENCED and INSURED Boat Captains. Complimentary cold drinks and snacks are provided. The Dive Centre and Instructors and Divemasters are also fully insured, professionally qualified and highly experienced.

We offer free pick up/drop off in our air-conditioned minibus from hotels/resorts/guest houses in the Rodney Bay and Gros Islet area. We also pick up by dive boat from Windjammer, St. James Morgan Bay, Villa Beach Cottages, Calabash Cove and in Marigot Bay.

British husband and wife team Stephen and Shirley Smith, run Scuba Steve’s Diving. We are both PADI Instructors passionate about diving and about “simply beautiful” St. Lucia. To provide our guests with top quality service, we have a handpicked team of highly qualified professionals and between us, we have nearly 60 years diving experience and have made over 8000 dives in St. Lucia.

We have been established 11 years and we are all patient, careful Instructors used to dealing with the concerns of nervous first-time divers. Your comfort and safety are at the top of our list of priorities. You WILL be fine and we WILL LOOK AFTER YOU, so all you need to do is put your faith in our training and experience and get prepared to have a serious amount of FUN!

When not in the water, Shirley organizes everything in the Dive Centre and on the boats, from issuing equipment to making sure that divers diving with us on multiple days get their correct equipment set up and waiting for them each time they get on the boat. She has a real knack for remembering the smallest detail about who had which mask and what color some body’s wetsuit is. When she is not busy doing this she can be found trying to encourage the rest of us to behave like the adults that we are supposed to be! (Our excuse is that we just love to have fun!).

Our brand new waterfront dive center which opened on October 1st, 2016 is now based at the Harmony Marina Suites Hotel in Rodney Bay Village and it offers all the facilities that a busy resort dive center needs. Our location ensures that we are within 5 minutes travel of most Hotels and Guesthouses at the North of the island. Our Dive Centre has these facilities onsite: –

•On-site freshwater swimming pool.
•Scubapro and Cressi rental dive equipment for adults and children.
•Fresh water shower, WC, equipment rinse and secure equipment storage areas.
•Air & Enriched Air (Nitrox) fills to 3000 psi/205 Bar.
•On-site Coffee Shop, Restaurant & Bar.
•Secure Car parking.
•Internet access with Webcam and a secure Wireless Network for Laptop users.

We are pleased to be able to offer Enriched Air Nitrox fills from 22% to 40% Oxygen content. For those of you that would like to dive Nitrox but do not have the certification, we offer Enriched Air Nitrox courses and try dives too.

Our scuba cylinders are Luxfer 80 cu ft (11.1 ltr) capacity Aluminium scuba cylinders fitted with your choice of International (“A” clamp) or 232 Bar DIN (screw in) valves. This means that if you own a DIN fitting regulator you will be able to use it at Scuba Steve’s without the need for a screw-on yoke adapter, which means you will not be stuck if you forget to bring your own International adapter! We also have Luxfer 63 cu ft (9.0 Ltr) and 50 cu ft (7.0 Ltr) aluminum cylinders for children or people who prefer a smaller and lighter cylinder.

All our rental dive equipment is from top name manufacturers and is kept in “as new” condition. It is disinfected after EVERY use and serviced at least twice every year by us here in the dive centre. We make sure that your rental equipment is pleasant to use.

We operate two custom designed boats, “Shirley” and “Volan”, which are the fastest dive boats in St. Lucia. For your comfort and safety, the boats are driven only by experienced licensed and insured Boat Captains who remain on board whilst divers are in the water. The boats are fitted with VHF Radio, Cell Phone, Navigation and Cabin Lighting, Personal Life Preservers, Drift Line and Float, DAN Oxygen Equipment, Divers Below Buoy, Flares and a First Aid Kit. Complimentary cold drinks and snacks are provided between dives. Both boats are inspected annually by a Marine Surveyor and the St. Lucia Air & Sea Ports Authority (SLASPA). We take reliability seriously and change the engines on each boat every two years or 1500hrs whichever comes first. The engines are dealer serviced every 100 hours.

Dive boat “Shirley” is 29 ft long. Moored at our Dive Centre she is licensed to carry 12 persons (inc crew) with all equipment necessary for a two-tank dive. Her two Mercury 150 HP four-stroke outboard motors give her a top speed in excess of 40 mph and being gasoline powered, there is no nasty exhaust smell like you get from a Diesel powered boat. “Shirley” is fast, clean and quiet!
A custom designed platform offers easy access to the water via a giant stride entry, and exit is via a custom built ladder with broad flat wooden steps and a convenient grab rail. There is a storage locker for personal items that you wish to keep dry during the trip. To protect you from the sun there are over 20 feet of covered deck area. There is a small sun deck at the bow to catch the sun during the surface intervals. “Shirley” is the ideal boat for small personal groups and her multi-purpose design makes her great for diving, snorkeling sightseeing and private boat charters for family groups.

Dive boat “Volan” is 35 ft long. Moored at the Dive Centre she is licensed to carry 23 passengers (15 divers) with all equipment necessary for a two-tank dive. Her two Mercury Verado Supercharged 300 HP four-stroke outboard motors give her a top speed in excess of 35 mph and being gasoline powered, there is no nasty exhaust smell like you get from a Diesel powered boat. “Volan” is fast, clean and ultra quiet!
